CCTV footage from two incidents from that day on the road were shown to the court. In the first, just past 2pm, Billy Newton, 19 from Motum Road, and another person were seen cycling along the road, and were then chased on foot by a bare-chested man - referred to as a member of a Jackson family - who lives in the same road.

The second incident was the brawl, which occurred about 7.25pm. As well as the adults involved in the affray, the footage shows a number of children present at the scene.

The court was told that although no-one was injured in the affray, a car was damaged, items were thrown at a house and makeshift weapons, and dogs, were used to threaten people.

Recorder Guy Ayers said the footage of the scene painted “a very depressing picture”.

He said: “Both incidents are very threatening.

“They show a group of people, many of who appear to be in drink, being mob-handed to the Jackson family.

“Some have armed themselves, others have taken dogs with them potentially to use as weapons.

“The most depressing part is the number of children that are seen. There is a great deal of aggression being show by those of you who have pleaded guilty.”

Mr Ayres added: “No-one was actually injured in this incident.

“Most of you, if not all of you, regretted what had happened, but nevertheless this sort of confrontation or violence cannot go unmarked.”

Part of the disturbance was caught on camera by onlookers, with one video posted on Facebook showing a man carrying a metal object in his hand while police can also be seen restraining people while bystanders shouted.

Another video taken on Snapchat showed eight police cars on the road with the person who posted the video stating there were more then 25 police cars at the scene.

Police patrols in the area were stepped up following the disorder to “offer reassurance to local residents”.
